TEST CRICKET: All the action from day four between England and South Africa at Lord's

Neil McKenzie also scored a century for South African as the tourists enjoyed their best day by a distance at Lord's.

England finally grabbed a wicket on the fourth day of the first Test match, but Graeme Smith's 107 could well have saved the game for the tourists.

Smith was finally out after 5pm at Lord's, shortly after England took the new ball, as he attempted to pull Anderson and skied the ball. Pietersen gleefully snaffled up the chance.

Smith's century put paid to any notions England may have had about seizing a quick victory at Lord's, as South Africa earlier battled to 128-0 at tea.

Openers Smith and Neil McKenzie have thus far thwarted England's seam attack in a century partnership, with Ryan Sidebottom, James Anderson and Stuart Broad failing to get anything out of the new ball or the Lord's pitch.

A flurry of boundaries after tea further added to the gloom at Lord's as the duo reduced South Africa's arrears to under 200 runs.

McKenzie survived a determined lbw shout from England in the first session, as Smith traipsed toward his half-ton in typically obdurate fashion.

Chasing what looked to be an unlikely draw, England need wickets - and fast - to get amongst the tourists' and regain the momentum.
